Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upside-Down Fish lives in a big tank at a pet store filled with lots of other fish. The other fish in the tank swim the right way up though, and they don’t understand why Upside-Down Fish is so different. This makes him very lonely. One day, a child comes into the store and chooses Upside-Down Fish as a pet. He is anxious that he won’t be accepted in his new tank, but much to his surprise, the new fish are friendly! They love that he is different and want to know what it’s like to have the sky below and the ground above. Upside-Down Fish realizes that it’s okay to be different—it’s what makes him so special. Kate Louise and Laura Matine’s The Upside-Down Fish is about being yourself and finding happiness with people who accept you for who you are. Inspired by the author’s own upside-down fish, this is a book for any child who feels a little different and needs that extra boost of confidence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Maybe He Just Likes You and Halfway Normal comes a “compassionate…touching” (Donna Gephart, award-winning author of The Paris Project) and powerful story of learning how to grow, change, and survive. When twelve-year-old Zinnia Manning’s older brother Gabriel is diagnosed with a mental illness, the family’s world is turned upside down. Mom and Dad want Zinny, her sixteen-year-old sister, Scarlett, and her eight-year-old brother, Aiden, to keep Gabriel’s condition “private”—and to Zinny that sounds the same as “secret.” Which means she can’t talk about it with her two best friends, who don’t understand why Zinny keeps pushing them away, turning everything into a joke. It also means she can’t talk about it during Lunch Club, a group run by the school guidance counselor. How did Zinny get stuck in this weird club, anyway? She certainly doesn’t have anything in common with these kids—and even if she did, she’d never betray her family’s secret. The only good thing about school is science class, where cool teacher Ms. Molina has them doing experiments on crayfish. And when Zinny has the chance to attend a dream marine biology camp for the summer, she doesn’t know what to do. How can Zinny move forward when Gabriel—and, really, her whole family—still needs her help?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "India's future will be determined not only by economic development, but also by a dynamic traditional culture that continues to develop along its own lines -- sometimes in concert, and sometimes in conflict with material enrichment. India develops not, as one writer has suggested, "in spite of the gods." Rather, the seed for the creation and the fuel for the sustenance of IndiaÂ's economic boom lay in its traditions, and, I will argue, the animating spirit of its future lies there as well. I have neither the expertise nor the access to operate as a political correspondent, nor the desire to posture as a political pundit. During eighteen years of research, however, I have seen what I perceived as a pervasive misrepresentation of recent developments in Indian politics. More specifically, a number of recent books consistently paint the Hindu right wing in India as essentially fascist or theocratic. My observations show that these claims are untenable and misrepresent a positive development in the history of Indian democracy. To think clearly about the changes in today's India we require a new model: the bi-directional banyan tree, a symbol borrowed, ironically, from ancient Sanskrit verses. Pindar claimed, "Custom is King of all," and this serves as a succinct expression of the central thesis of this book."--Publisher's website.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It might be alarming to see a catfish upside down, but it's normal, even though scientists aren't sure how they do it. Researchers studied their bodies but didn't find anything out of the ordinary. The swim bladder and balancing organ of the ear are the same as that of other catfish species. Still, K Ohnishi et. al. performed studies that suggest "Synodontis nigriventris has a high ability to keep upside-down posture and the gravity sensation in this catfish is likely to contribute to its different postural control from that of many other fishes." Their body mechanisms remain a mystery. But, it's no secret that the upside-down positioning is advantageous. Lauren Chapman is a biology professor at McGill University. She says, "The upside-down catfish seems to have a whole suite of adaptations that make life at the surface more tenable." They Swim Faster Upside-Down The upside-down cat can swim right-side up, but they swim faster upside-down. Robert Blake was a biology professor at the University of British Columbia. He found that deeper underwater, swimming upside-down didn't offer any advantages. But, near the surface, swimming upside-down produces less drag, making swimming easier. They Use Barbels To Navigate Mun Sing Photo Workshop They have sensory organs called barbels to help them navigate murky waters. Their three sets of barbels accompany two large eyes, a forked tail, and a large adipose fin. Their Fins & Color Offer Protection Their pectoral fins have ridges of sharp spines that protect them from predators. If something tries to eat them, the catfish becomes lodged in their mouth. Their bodies are light brown with darker brown splotches. But, the underside of their body is darker than the top of their body. In most fish, the top of the body is darker to keep them camouflaged at the surface. For the same reason, the underside of the upside-down catfish's body is darker. Common Names: Upside-down catfish, blotched upside-down catfish Scientific Name: Synodontis nigriventris Origin: Central Africa from Kinshasa to Basonga Upside-Down Catfish Size (Length): 3-4 in (7.6-10.2 cm) Aquarium Size: 30+ gallons Temperament: Peaceful Ease of Care: Easy
